If SCOTUS Overturns Obamacare Republicans Are Screwed
That’s because the states, the red ones, that didn’t participate, will lose federal funding and its citizens will lose coverage according to a new study by the Urban Institute and the Robert Woods Johnson Foundation. And guess who will have to fix and and who will get the blame?
“The report estimates that in the event of such a ruling, the 20 states that did not set up their own exchange or expand their Medicaid programs under the Affordable Care Act would lose an estimated $721 billion in federal funding over the next decade. The study said these 20 states would lose $41 billion in federal spending in 2016 for not expanding Medicaid, and another $21 billion would be lost if the federal subsidies stop flowing.”
“States that have not expanded Medicaid have the most to lose in the King v. Burwell decision if they are not already running their own marketplaces because people with incomes between 100 and 138 percent of the federal poverty level would not get any assistance in affording healthcare,’ the study said.”

But unless some of the 1%ers kick in, there still won’t be enough money. And that’s not how they got to be part of the 1%.
tracey marie May 18th, 2015 at 15:56
Only liberals will help, that has been proven.
John_St_John May 18th, 2015 at 17:11
Not this Socialist. The Frightwing could collectively die off tomorrow and I would not even bat an eyelash. Especially one of my sister’s in law who is trying to push her children into acting and performing in the hopes they will make her rich so she will not have to ever work again.
tracey marie May 18th, 2015 at 17:33
I have a sil like that, she tried to “marry” her 16 year old off to a guy online who claimed to be a doctor wanted me to buy her a ticket to go visit him alone in another state. Sick what theocratic rwnj’s will do.

You’re done.
Khary A May 19th, 2015 at 09:54
Hmm makes my statement about how conversation is no longer possible with them more than apt huh? Wow what a tool. I can imagine he was only 17 at best, I say that because I hope for better challenges from the opposition. Totally juvenile.
Carla Akins May 19th, 2015 at 11:12
He still doesn’t get to insult other readers. Unfortunately, it could not stand.
Snick1946 May 18th, 2015 at 20:36
Boy not only are you a troll, you’re a pathetic one at that. That’s the best comeback you can come up with?
Bunya May 18th, 2015 at 16:37
And the sad part is, most of the people in red states will continue to vote against their own best interest and re-elect more republicans.
Red Mann May 18th, 2015 at 23:16
It’s the American psychosis.
Hugh Everett May 19th, 2015 at 09:57
If the Supreme Court rules against Obamacare next month, Republican lawmakers are prepared. They will use Reconciliation to pass an extension of the federal exchange, along with an elimination of the individual mandate.Checkmate.
Ken91267 May 18th, 2015 at 17:53
I love coming on this site and getting a good laugh at the socialists.
causeican May 18th, 2015 at 18:02
Well bless your little heart! And I do mean little.
Ken91267 May 18th, 2015 at 18:53
Got another bite. Fish on.
Ken91267 May 19th, 2015 at 09:05
Bless your obese body.
Buford2k11 May 18th, 2015 at 18:13
I’m getting a good laugh at your not understanding what the word really means…it means you should move out of your parent’s basement and be useful instead of trolling the internet….
Ken91267 May 18th, 2015 at 18:52
Fish On.
ChrisVosburg May 18th, 2015 at 20:00
You’re welcome. Also for your taxpayer funded education subsidies, police and fire services, roads and bridges, etc., etc.,
Ken91267 May 18th, 2015 at 21:27

William May 18th, 2015 at 22:52
“you got bad self esteem you can’t handle going on a regular site” …
Yet here you are.
Ken91267 May 19th, 2015 at 03:28
First time.
ChrisVosburg May 19th, 2015 at 00:56
I’m not patting anyone on the back, Ken, I’m merely trying to explain to you the concept of pooling money to pay for things that benefit the common good, which you denigrate as “socialism.”
Barry Shitpeas May 19th, 2015 at 04:18
Here’s how it should have been…
This site is a riot; you all speak your rhetoric and pat each other on the back. What’s the matter? Have you got bad self esteem? You can’t handle going on a regular site so you have to go on one called Liberaland?
You guys are pathetic.
…I guess homeschooling didn’t work out for you so well.
KEN May 19th, 2015 at 08:59
Seing and a miss libtard
Gina May 18th, 2015 at 20:24
First troll I see here. Hope you won’t last…
whatthe46 May 18th, 2015 at 20:30
long enough to get its ass handed to it on a plate, served with a large side of embarassment.
Gina May 18th, 2015 at 20:35
That would be lovely…:)
Ken91267 May 19th, 2015 at 09:02
Your words do not hurt me. Do mine hurt you awwwwww
Ken91267 May 18th, 2015 at 21:25
All you libs are trolls.
Red Mann May 18th, 2015 at 23:15
Kenny, you’re just another ignorant, yet arrogant, know nothing RWNJ who comes into Liberal web sites like a little child fusing and screaming while the adults are tying to talk. You are a meaningless little snot that doesn’t even have the balls to show your comment history, such as it is. Go back to the kiddies table at WND or Breitbart.
Ken91267 May 19th, 2015 at 03:28
Ha ha not
fahvel May 19th, 2015 at 04:50
the truly cool thing about l’il kenny is the brilliant riposte he flung at your comment. How’re ya gonna sleep at night? :-)
Red Mann May 19th, 2015 at 13:43
I’ll sleep the sleep of one who is right. Kenny Boy really thinks this was an absolutely brilliant take down, full of nuance and wit, because that’s the (lack of) depth of his genius “mind”.
fahvel May 19th, 2015 at 04:47
love it when aholes think they’re being cute and just really expressing themselves by wind from their only functioning orifice.
Ken91267 May 19th, 2015 at 08:59
Me too
ken91267 May 23rd, 2015 at 17:26
Just kidding
ken91267 May 23rd, 2015 at 17:26
I got viagr@ so I last for hours
OldLefty May 18th, 2015 at 20:53
Why would we think that you even know what a socialist is?
Ken91267 May 18th, 2015 at 21:21
Wow one cast and I caught three suckers.
OldLefty May 18th, 2015 at 21:23
You have a three way mirror?
Ken91267 May 18th, 2015 at 22:12
don’t worry some of your liberal buddies will up vote you to make you feel good
OldLefty May 19th, 2015 at 06:22
In other words, you don’t know what a socialist is.
Ken91267 May 19th, 2015 at 08:58
Nice try.
OldLefty May 19th, 2015 at 09:05
In other words, you STILL don’t know what a socialist is.
That’s funny.
Ken91267 May 19th, 2015 at 09:06
Think what you want. Dumbass lol
OldLefty May 19th, 2015 at 09:14
That’s the classic response from those who don’t know what they are talking about ;-]
Ken91267 May 19th, 2015 at 09:19
Ok. You probably think we are a democracy.
And I do not want the govt to control all the major industries. I prefer private ownership. Socialism is a stepping stone for Communism.
OldLefty May 19th, 2015 at 09:47
Ok. You probably think we are a democracy.
_____
We learned this in 2nd grade.
And I do not want the govt to control all the major industries. I prefer private ownership. Socialism is a stepping stone for Communism.
______
The government does not own all the major industries and nobody advocated that, not even actual real socialists, except for those things that can not be in the private, for profit realm, like the military , roads, ports, etc.
Nor do liberals advocate for the corporate socialism that so many on the right do , where they socialize the risks and losses and privatize the profits.
allison1050 May 19th, 2015 at 10:13
Other than that what did you think of the article Ken?
ken91267 May 23rd, 2015 at 17:25
My mom wouldn’t read it to me.
ken91267 May 23rd, 2015 at 17:25
A socialist has lots of friends. Unlike me.
OldLefty May 23rd, 2015 at 17:29
That does not indicate that you know what a socialist is or why the posters here are socialists.
Ken91267 May 19th, 2015 at 09:20
You are so dumb.
OldLefty May 19th, 2015 at 09:43
Wow!!
Now THERE’S some intellectual heft!
ken91267 May 23rd, 2015 at 17:24
Sorry I didn’t mean that.
Learjet May 19th, 2015 at 19:42
Don’t forget commies. We’re those, too, according to you and all the dumbf*ck clowns at Fox “News”.

Everyone’s liberal when it happens to them.

An eerily almost ghostly weeping sound echoing down the hallway was just heard from Boehners office…
fahvel May 19th, 2015 at 04:45
great allusion and now that I know he’s a shorty, it all seems goofier than as if he were at least average.
cecilia May 19th, 2015 at 10:02
he’s Always crying…it’s as if someone was constantly throwing lego pieces under his feet
Barry Shitpeas May 19th, 2015 at 11:18
Thank you for hammering the point home.
Jeffrey Samuels May 19th, 2015 at 13:07
I don’t understand why the Republicans would be upset. Isn’t this what they want? Of course, they wouldn’t phrase it like that. Instead of thousands of people losing their health insurance, they would probably say it gives poor people the incentive to stop sitting at home, overcome their disabilities and illnesses and pick themselves up by their bootstraps to find the well paying jobs that abound in our society; especially the children and elderly who are mooching off the system at the expense of the downtrodden hedge fund managers and country club kids. If they can afford insurance, why can’t the less ‘well to do’?
